When Alessandro, the mafia leader, had his heart shattered by an older woman, he sealed it away, and swore he would never be fooled by an immature emotion like love. One cannot play with a dangerous man's emotions and get away with it. When Alessandro learns that his heartbreaker has given birth, he kidnaps the baby shortly after its birth. At first, he meant to brutally murder the child, but he didn't have the heart to kill the human who was the size of his hand. The fact that he did not kill the infant did not imply that he returned it; instead, Alessandro raised it. As Lily grew older and more mature, her love for Alessandro started to take a romantic turn. She was hankering after Alessandro's tenderness and touches, but the mafia leader kept turning her down. Lily didn't lack the ability to fight for what she wanted just because she was an innocent girl. In the end, she was able to get Alessandro above her—between her legs, to be exact—and even win his love. Poor thing, by the time she discovered the skeleton of the man she thought she knew, it was too late. The half-truth she discovered broke her apart, forcing her to choose between forgiving Alessandro and letting go of everything or watch the man she loves die. Lily initially picked the second option, but she had already allowed Alessandro to own her emotions in the same way that he had her body, so letting go proved impossible. As she battles to reunite with the guy her heart aches for, she ultimately made the decision to give up the innocent version of herself and transform into the vicious female counterpart of her lover.

A week after I gave birth via C-section, Mark Whitman invited his friends over to celebrate the birth of our son. The crowd was boisterous—more than a dozen people. Not one of them bothered to remove their dirty shoes. The wooden floor was soon covered in muddy footprints. Mark came into the room and, without a hint of concern, ordered me out of bed. "Everyone's waiting outside. Don't just hide here and rest—you're embarrassing me in front of our guests." I had no choice but to push through the pain, forcing my body to prepare a huge meal for the large crowd, all on my own. When I carried the final bowl of steaming soup to the table, Lily Hoyte—whether intentionally or not—jabbed her hand against the wound on my abdomen. My hand trembled from the sudden pain, and the bowl slipped slightly, spilling the hot soup onto Lily's shoes. Mark's face darkened instantly. "What the heck did you do, Cammy? Lily rushed here right after her plane landed from overseas to see our son, and this is how you treat her?" The crowd quickly chimed in. "Come on, Cammy, no need to be so petty." "Mark and Lily grew up together. If there was really something between them, do you think you'd even be here now?" "Do you even know how much those shoes cost? They're limited edition—easily over ten thousand dollars. And you just ruined them." Lily stood up awkwardly, her eyes misting with tears. "If Cammy doesn't like me," she said softly, "then I'll leave. I don't want to be a bother." But Mark grabbed her hand in an exaggerated display of protection, his voice harsh as he turned to me. "Wipe Lily's shoes clean. Right now." His partiality for Lily made something sharp twist in my chest. My lips quivered as I fought back tears. "The wound on my stomach hasn't healed yet. I can't bend over." At that, his expression grew colder. "Don't use childbirth as an excuse. If you can't bend over, then kneel and wipe them. And if you won't, get out of my house!"
